FMEAFailure Modes and Effects AnalysisAn engineering methodology to analyze and discover:
1. All potential failure modes of a system
2. The effects these failures have on the system and
3. How to correct and or mitigate the failures or effects on the system.
The correction and mitigation is (generally) based on ranking of the severity and probability of the failure.

FMEABenefits
Key tool for reliability analysis
Provides detailed insight into systems interrelationships and potentials for failure.
• FMEA and CIL (Critical Items List) evaluations cross check safety hazard analyses for completeness.
If undertaken early enough in the design process by senior level personnel, can have major impact on:
• Removing causes for failures
• Developing systems that can mitigate the effects of failures.

FMEA: Take Away for Entrepreneurs
Agile Development Methodologies
Plan out 1-4 weeks work
Improve process
Review product
Create product needs
Meet daily
Strategic planning
FMEA Take Away for EntrepreneursTraditional Development Process
• Customers only involved at beginning and end of process
• No Iterations
• Takes a long time.
• “Make-or-break”
• Rarely delivered according to plan
FMEA Take Away for EntrepreneursAgile Software Development
Early customer involvement
Welcome changing requirements
Deliver working software frequently
Business people and developers must work together
Face-to-face conversation.
Working software is the primary measure of progress.
Agile processes promote sustainable development.
Continuous attention to technical excellence and design enhances agility.
Self-organizing teams.
Constant tuning of processes

stage one is people chasing goals that take
them away from their core, their
competitive advantage all in
the name of growth, or the
grand strategy.

that are not part of your core, fail to see the
problems..
Stage 4: Grasping for salvation

Scenario Planning: An Overview
Scenarios are alternative visions of the future
Scenarios are generated by analysis of what we don’t know, not just what we do
Scenarios are used to envision and “try out” multiple futures
Scenarios are used to work backwards in time to today TODAY

Rethinking Industry Dynamics
CONFIDENTIAL - 28
• Philips has a sophisticated way of planning for the future when operating in a mature industry environment
• But there are emerging forces that threaten to disrupt--and recycle-- the entire industry, and the current view of dynamics
• Forecast-planning is sufficient for a mature industry. But it’s inadequate when industry transformation is taking place

Breaking Out of our Preconceptions
They are stories that help suspend disbelief in possible futures
We have a tendency to fixate on one future, or at most, two
Scenarios are a powerful tool for forcing us to abandon previously fixed ideas
Scenario-based planning allows managers to deliberately try to break the rules of their business
Scenarios are about the world, not about us
How they help usThey enable us to “practise” for different futures
They are a tool for envisioning, not predicting
They suggest the strategies, deals and alliances that we would need to prosper in different worlds
The process of creating scenarios makes you smart about a space
Scenarios Tool for embracing uncertainty
Tool for play & provocation
Tool for envisioning value creation & migration
Tool for upsetting the world

Checklist Manifesto
Checklist ManifestoAtul Gawande
Checklists allow one to manage complexity and cognitive overload.
Roots in aviation industryWide use in medicine emerging
Checklist ManifestoChecklists are the means, during complex situations, to
consistently apply the knowledge that is available in our minds but that we might forget to use.
Checklists permit us to manage the assembly and integration of knowledge that is held by different members of an enterprise when facing a complex situation.
Just A Routine Operationhttp://www.vimeo.com/970665
Checklist ManifestoObjections
Call for a broad checklist regime would be counterproductive — fraught with all the dangers of bureaucracy
Spontaneity and imagination are important in many jobs

Redefining Failure
Seth Godin
Common Types of Failure
Seth Godin
Design Failure. If your product or service is misdesigned, then people don’t understand it, don’t purchase it, or may even harm themselves when they use it, and you have failed.
Failure of Opportunity. If your assets are poorly deployed, ignored, or decaying, it’s as if you are destroying them, and you have failed.
Failure of Trust. If you waste stakeholders’ goodwill and respect by taking shortcuts in exchange for short-term profits, you have failed.
Failure of Will. If your organization prematurely abandons important work because of internal resistance or a temporary delay in market adoption, you have failed.
Common Types of Failure
Seth Godin
Failure of Priorities.
If your management team chooses to focus on work that doesn’t create value, that’s like sending cash directly to your competitors, and you have failed.
Failure to Quit.
If your organization sticks with a mediocre idea, facility, or team too long because it lacks the guts to create something better, you have failed.
Failure of Respect.
If you succeed without treating your people, your customers, and your resources with respect and honesty, you have failed.
Failure to See.
And, of course, the most self-referential form of failure is the failure to see when you’re failing
